A Well Defined Issue.

Mr.. Henry Labouchere, the able editor Of
London Truth, says that the tariff ls local
Issue, as Gen. Hancock said In his letter OF
acceptance Of the Democratic nomination.
But Mr.. Labouchere gives 1t a broader sense
than was implied in that letter. He says:

graphically. If l had been an American
should have been protectionist. Being an
Englishman am free trader. If l were a
Canadian shonld advocate a customs union
with the United States, although, as an Eng
lishman, should be sorry II this union were
effected. The mistake of political economy Is
to suppose that II is based on principles Of uni
versal application. My reason, as an Eoglsh-
man, for being free trader Is not any theoreti
cal admiration of free trade, but because we
should lose more than we should gain By pro-
lection.
The editor Of Truth may be correct; pos
sibly is, as TO the necessity Of an English
man being free trader. He is certainly
correct in the assertion that an American
should be protectionist. 1t is the duty OF
the American people. as O people, to pro-
tect their trade against the incursious Of
free traders. Unfortunately there are some
ability or the inclination to comprehend the
great principles which underlie the protect
I've policy Of the Republican party. Hence
It becomes necessary that those who do un-
derstand the subject should place 1t before
the public In proper light.
Protection is the great safeguard of
American interests and Of American work.
ingmen. Without It capital would be
destroyed; labor would be reduced to serf-
dom. These are facts whichjt is the duty
Of the Republican press and the Republican
speakers to impress upon the mind of the
American voter. The weak platitudes Of
President Cleveland and of other Amerl-
cans like him, who are -laboring in the
interest Of English free traders, whether
corruptly or because OF the want Of
knowledge, can easily be,refuted, aud 1t is
to that task that the Republican press
should devote Itself during the coming

As for judlcous action on the part Of tue
Democrats In Congress, that is not to he

The "excellent record made by the pres-
ent administration" is OF course piece of
mild sarcasm. II It were possible for Con-
gress to adjourn after simply passing the
appropriation bills the Republicans would

claim II to be.

A Man for the Time.

The election to the United States Senate
OF VIM. f. Chandler marks an epoch IL
New England Republlcapism. For some
years previous to 1887 the Republicans OF
some sections suffered from the namby-
pambyffm Of MugNumpery under the more
attractive name Of Independence, They had
refused to recognize caucuses; they had
sacrificed leaders at the demand Of the pro-
fessional assassins of character; they had
given away advantages through fear OF Of
Tending the chronic kickers: they were los.
ing ground all the time because they subor.
dinated their convictions to their fears.
The result OF last years election awak
ened the Republicans Of New Hampshire.
They renewed their faith with spirit. Aud
who, in the time of apolitical revival like
that, could rally them to new achievements
so well as William E. Chandler2 He Is a
Republican twenty-four hours In the day,
and he never allows personal differences to
divert him from the support Of Republican
principles. The Republicans remember
with pleasure that when his vigorous
methods inspired the leadership of the
party their victories were uniform and de-
cided. He encourages men by his aggres
siveness, and, his keen intellect will fnd
plenty Of work In the ensuing session.
Republicans will prosper as long as mer
like Mr.. Chandler are chosen to represent
them, and will suffer relapse whenever
such men are repelled. They viii lead in
the ensuing national campaign.

Some Truths From a Democrat. i.

Democratic congressman from. New
York is reported by the Charleston News
and Courier as saying:
That while there is no doubt that President
Cleveland will again be the nominee of his
party, yet there is no certainty Of his re.elec-
tion unless the Democratic party ia thoroughly
united north, south, east, and west. Absolute
harmony in New York city, above all things,
should be maintained, for should there be any
trading or dealing with Republican, 1t might
throw the state back into the radical line
A change of q few hundred votes In Florida
might turn that state over to the enemy
as there is less than one thousand votes
difference between the two parties at present
He says there are, also two or three other
southern states, but he does not name them,
that need Watching next year, and, therefore,
twill not do for the Democratic party to relax
their vigilance, or place 700 much dependence
on the excellent record made by the present
administration. 1t is well enough TO go into
battle confident of victory, but without Judi
ciouS action by the party leaders In Congress
and aggressive work at the polls, President
Cleveland's re election Is by no means as
sured. The Republicans have been quietly at
work all the summer Matching their plans for
thecoming session ofCongress, and they will
make desperate fight to outgeneral the
friends of the administIatlo on In matters OF
legislation, and, failing in that they will use
every means known aud unknown Ia political
warfare to overthrow the paVty. In power at
the next election, He advises his Democrats
brethren to stand together on the tariff and
all other questions of national importance,
and present an unbroEon front to the enemy
when the battle begins.
The Congressman iscorreet In most OF
what he says, and particularly right as to
the 'two or three other southern states"
His modesty, thing for which New York
congressman are especially noted, kept him
from naming the states, but he doubtless
meant Virginia, West Virginia, North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, and Maryland, three OF
which are reasonably certain to 90 into the
Republican column, with the other two
leaning that way strongly. ......

The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN Ia truly glad
that the New York Sun, "Grst among ita

thought, has taken the correct position OH

raw materials which exist are those which
come from the great alemoic Of nature,

About Raw Materials.

We congratulate the New York Sun
upon the quickness with which 1t seizes on
q good idea, and the ability displayed In
handling 1t. Treating upon the subject OF
raw materials, on Nov. 80, the NATIoNAL
REPUBLICAN, closed an article with the fol-
lowing words;
Nothing upon which the labor of man has
been expended is a raw material OF course
Mr.. Abram 8. Hewitt with class the iron ore,
coal, and limestone which he wants to use in
bis furnace as raw material" Just as the
foundryman classes the pig iron which Mr..
Hewitt makes in his furnace as the raw ma
teIial" needed at the foundry
But the American iron ore, coal, and lime
stone each had a brawny workman engaged
in taking them from the earth while capI-
ialist had his money invested IN the mines,
and these are as much entitled to protection as
Mr.. Hewilts money and workman.
Raw material is myth. No such thing
exists
The New York Sut Of the Sth instant,
discussing the recommendations OF the
President for 'the reduction OF the duties
imposed on raw materials, says:
But what are raw materIals2 Almost every
lumber, salt, and sugar should be so regarded,
and so they should be for some purposes But
in another ASPECT they are rs much manufac-
tured goods as the most elaborate productions
Of human skin. To the miner, who digs coal
from the mine, the coal bed is the raw mate
rial, and coal ready for burning Is the manu-
featured product. To the iron smelter the ore
Is raw material and the pigs manufacture.
Trees are the raw material OF the lumberman,
and logs those of the sawyer. The same may
be said OF salt, sugar, and all the other articles
in the list. They are produced by human la.
Dor and skill, and can nowhere be found In
nature ready for consumption.
The industries connected with the produc-
tlon Of so'called raw materials are, therefore,

and other articles Of that sort are worthy of
consideration by Congress, so are those who
produce them. It Ia impossible upon principle
National Republican., 1887-12-10
Funny Logic.

Like many another neophyte the Presi-
dent is an ardent free trader without know.
Ing why. Some Of his alleged logic Is
lsughable. 81
For example, the farmer who raises
sheep will for the first time learn that all
the profit which protection helps his nocks
to return is 'swept away" by the additional
cost OF the woollen goods he buys. AS he
expends for woollen manufactures say, one.
half Of one per cent. of HIS receipts for
wool, this bit Of information Will astonisb
the sheep raiser.
The President should have followed out
this line Of alleged reasoning. For exam
pie, the message should have re-
corded that the farmer who raises
potatoes is mulcted by the dutles on
bis tools to such an extent that his "tariff
profp is "swept away" Reason II out In
this wise The farmer purchases plow, a
shovel, hoe, and other tools to the value
Of $50. The so-called "tarir profit paid
on these perhaps would be $l5. With
these tools he can raise at least 3 900 bush
els Of potatoes. II, as the President asserts,
the price is raised to just the extent of the
duty, his 'tariff profit" above the free trade
profit would be 10 cents per bushel, or 5000.
How 'tarif profit" of $500 can be "swept
awayn by tariff expenditure OF $l5 we
can safely leave the President to answer.
This presidential Golden Club sophlstry
relative to other. interests might be as
easily laughed down, but 1t is a waste of
time. a.r- ...
1t Is not true, as the President assumes,
that the prices Of oil commodities are en-
haDced by just so much as the amount OF
tariff duties imposed. The articles which
the farmer purchases are all from ten to
sixty per cent. cheaper now than they
were under free trade policy. The
farmer is actually benefited by the duties
upon manufactured goods by reason Of the
encouragement they give to competition.
Mr.. Randall should give the President
lessons in the intermediate grade of pollti-
cal economy. The primary course is In
adequate.

Tho EynngelIcal Alliance.

More than two thousand delegates, com.
ing from every country of the world and
representing every phase OF religious
thought except that taught by the Roman
Catholic Church, have been assembled in
this city for the past three days In general
Christian conference, under the auspices Of
the Evangelical Alliance.
This conyocatlon is one OF the most nota-
ble that could have assembled 10 any part
of the world, representing, as 1t does, the
concepsus of the religious thought OF over
one hundred million people.
But It is not only in the ideas repre-
sented, but in the men who represent them,
that this conference under the auspices OF
the alliance is distinguished. Many OF the
ablest dlvines Of the Protestant Christian
churches have been consulting together
for days with numbers Of the leading lay
men Of their various congregations upon
questions of the gravest import.
The evaugelization Of the churches, the
bringing them into closer union with tue
people, is one Of the great objects of the
conference just closed. 1t seeks to abolish
pew holding and other modern ideas that
have penetrated into the churches and have
made distinctions that are unknown to and
not consonant with the doctrines taught by
the divine founder Of the church.
Many able papers have been read before
the conference upon subjects OF interest,
not only to those connected with the
churches, but to all the citizens OF this
country and the people of the world.
The meeting Of this conference Il another
proof of the necessity for the erection In
this city Of grand hall capable Of seating
several thousand persous. Not even the
delegates to the conference could at any
time get together in any building In Wash
inGtoD.
The work Of the conference is closed, It's
members will soon be separated, some 90
ing to "the uttermost parts of the earth,"
but the results of the meeting Will be felt
for good during all the coming years.
